General joystick mounting question
<< < (3/4) > >>
brophog:
1 1/8" works well for most joysticks and all Happs buttons.
zerocle:
yeah thats what i figured, why would happ require you to buy two different size drill bits, and i got my 5/8 " at Lowes, its like a scottsdale home depot, at least thats the way i look at it, they are a little more expensive, but they had what I was looking for.
ahofle:
I could swear I had issues with the shaft touching the wood with 1 1/8" holes but it sounds like it works fine too.  Sorry for the misinformation.  :-[
zerocle:
maybe its because yours is so deep?
ahofle:
That could be as well.  I didn't route out any wood and there is a 1/8" piece of lexan in addition to the 5/8" MDF, so 3/4" total thickness the joystick shaft needs to clear.  Either way, use scrap wood to test everything out before cutting the real CP. :)
